ASUSWRT

THE POWERFUL USER-FRIENDLY INTERFACE

The enhanced ASUSWRT graphical user interface gives you easy access to the 30-second, 3-step web-based installation process. It’s also where you can configure AiCloud 2.0 and all advanced options. ASUSWRT is web-based, so it doesn’t need a separate app, or restrict what you can change via mobile devices — you get full access to everything, from any device that can run a web browser.

Network Map

At-a-glance view of connected devices

Network Map identifies up to 16 types of client devices including laptops, PCs, mobile phones, game consoles and more. It shows you at-a-glance details of all devices connected to your router and their connection status.

Adaptive QoS

Intelligent bandwidth sharing

Adaptive QoS optimizes inbound and outbound bandwidth on both wired and wireless connections. Applications and tasks can be prioritized easily using drag-and-drop presets for gaming, media streaming, VoIP, web browsing and file transfers.

Traffic Analyzer

The easy way to spot internet bottlenecks

Traffic Analyzer gives you an at-a-glance view of what’s happening on your network on a daily, weekly or monthly timescale. It lets you see immediately how much bandwidth each user, device or application has used, helping you to reduce bottlenecks in your internet connection. It’s also great for parents who want to keep an eye on their children’s internet usage, or for small businesses who need to monitor employees’ internet activity.

AiProtection

Your advanced security gateway

AiProtection, incorporating state-of-the-art, three-pronged security from Trend Micro™, gives you enterprise-level security in the home — making ASUS routers equipped with this feature the most secure home routers you can buy! It constantly monitors the health and safety of your network for total peace of mind.

Router security scan

Without AiProtection

Many simple problems can compromise security, such as a weak router password, unencrypted Wi-Fi or unblocked remote access. Incorrect settings could allow hackers to change router settings and bypass your firewall to control devices, steal sensitive personal information or even use your IP camera remotely.

Vulnerabilities usually exist in your internet-based devices, such as IP cameras, game consoles and other smart home devices. Cybercriminals exploit these vulnerabilities to steal sensitive personal information.

Infected device detection and blocking

Without AiProtection

A malware-infected device can send sensitive private information directly to a malicious server without you knowing. It could also infect other devices, send infected emails to your contacts, or be used to conduct web attacks remotely — all of which can paralyze your home internet.
